Add private comments to student videos

As an educator, you can add private comments to a video posted by a student in a topic so that only they can review it.

Important:

  • Even if your topic is not moderated, you can post private comments as an educator or co-lead.
  • Students who post comments on moderated topics, will find specific messaging to let them know that only they can view it along with the educator and co-lead, until the comment is activated. Learn more about how to turn topic moderation on or off.
  • Educators can't add threaded private comment replies. If the comment is private, the reply will also be private. If the comment is public, then the reply will also be public.
